The R9 280X uses the same Tahiti core as the outgoing Radeon HD 7970. This means the new card has 2,048 stream processors, just like the Radeon HD 7970, but the R9 280X runs at a clock frequency of 1GHz instead of 925MHz and its 3GB of GDDR5 memory runs at 1,500MHz rather than 1,375MHz.

What is ZCash?

Zcash is a cryptocurrency that grew out of the Zerocoin project, aimed at improving anonymity for Bitcoin users. The Zerocoin protocol was initially improved and transformed into Zerocash, which thus yielded the Zcash cryptocurrency in 2016.

The founder and CEO of Zcash is Zooko Wilcox-O’Hearn. Its founding team includes cryptographer Matthew D. Green from Johns Hopkins University. Roger Verwas one of Zcash’s initial investors
